The Funeral Consumers Alliance of Greater Kansas City is a completely volunteer-based nonprofit organization. Perhaps you are thinking about sharing your time and talents with us. It is remarkable to note that volunteers have sustained FCA-GKC for more than 60 years. Rapidly changing conditions in the funeral industry tell us how important it is to remain vibrant at this time.

If you are interested in any of the volunteer opportunities listed below, contact us at fca.gkc@gmail.com or 816-561-6322. We will provide all the orientation you need to feel comfortable and welcome.

Data management. Our mailing lists, email lists, and other excel databases require continued updating.
